Connecting People While Telling Stories
Bella Tiamo is no stranger to staying ahead of the game with technology and experiences for our couples. Live Streaming is no different. With the increase of smaller, more intimate weddings Bella Tiamo wants to give our couples an opportunity to give their virtual guests an experience like no other!
WHY WOULD YOU LIVE STREAM YOUR WEDDING?
With the increase of intimate weddings, elopements, and smaller size events many couples can’t invite everyone who may want to witness in their marriage. To solve this problem our team offers excellent quality live streaming options for you to be able to broadcast your wedding to all of your guests no matter the location. All your guests need is a reliable internet or cellphone connection, access to platforms such as Facebook and YouTube and they are ready to view your special event!
Live streaming is also great for larger events. Do you have a relative in another state or country who can’t make it? You can broadcast your wedding directly to them so they feel like they are part of the experience.
So....How Does it Work?
Lives Streaming an event like a wedding……..That must take a lot of equipment with wires all over the place right? NOPE! Just like our videography, our goal is to leave the smallest footprint possible while still keeping the quality high.
In fact our live stream set up is so tiny I am still shocked how such a small package can create such a high quality product.
The best part is our live streaming set up coexists with our normal videography services very well. We don’t even need extra cameras and can operate everything wireless.
Step 01
First things first we need to learn more about you, your wedding, how many people you want to live stream to, what parts of the day you want to live stream, and probably some more about you. 😃 Our quotes are always custom made so the more we know about what is important to you the most accurate quote we can give you.
If you are a current couple of ours just send us an email, text, or call and lets discuss some options for you.
Step 02
All of those guests who will be viewing the live stream need a place to find it right? We will take care of that for you.
We build a custom event page where your wedding will be streamed. This page will provide information on when and where the guests can see the live stream. We encourage you to share your landing page with as many friends and family as possible!
Step 03
This is personally my favorite part. 😃
Our normal video team will arrive for your wedding with a member of the team who is dedicated to the live streaming. Before the big day arrives we will have done any pre planning needed to make this online experience come to life. That way everything goes smoothly the day of.
Your online guests will simply open up the landing page, YouTube, or Facebook and watch in on the fun. You can even opt in to allow the guests to communicate with each other in a chat box.
Step 04
The live stream broadcast will be available to view online within 48 hours of the event. (Sometime immediately after the event)

HOW RELIABLE IS THE SIGNAL?
For Live Streaming we use extremely reliable and versatile broadcasting equipment to ensure that every wedding is streamed without issue. This technology allows us to provide stable HD video streaming from just about any location,
Internet connections is something we will discuss with your venue way in advance. We have options to plug into their internet or connect to wifi. We also have options to provide a wireless hotspot for us to connect to. All of our live streaming gear can be plugged in and used wireless. So even if the power goes out we can find an alternative to continue live streaming. 😃
WHY NOT JUST USE MY PHONE TO GO LIVE?
Smartphone technology is amazing. The things we can do with a device that fits in our pockets is crazy! With that said smartphones are not always reliable neither is the person operating the smartphone. A guest who is in charge of a Facebook live stream may not know what part of the event to focus on, they may put down their phone to get a drink, and the audio is not going to be good unless they stand right next to you with the phone. I don’t know about you, but I sure wouldn’t want a relative standing right next to me during my vows. 😂
Also with our technology we offer you multiple angles and audio sources. That way we are showing the best camera angle for each moment and the audio is crystal clear.
DO GUESTS NEED A HIGH-SPEED INTERNET CONNECTION TO VIEW THE BRODCAST?
We recommend a connection of at least 5 mbps download speed for the best viewing experience. If the connection is any slower the viewer may need to lower the quality of the video to play it back. They can check their internet speed HERE
WILL YOU TRAVEL TO LIVE STREAM?
Our team loves to travel the globe to capture a couple’s love story. Live streaming is no exception. Our home base is Chicago, Illinois, but we will travel from California to New York with every state in between. We also have no issues with traveling domestically.
